AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing sound field reproduction technologies struggle to effectively reproduce various sound fields with diverse acoustic characteristics, limiting the versatility and user control over the perceived sound environments.

Method used

An information processing method and system that generate a third sound field parameter by combining first and second sound field parameters, allowing for the creation of a sound field with acoustic characteristics intermediate between the original two, and controlled by user input to morph between them.

Benefits of technology

Enables the reproduction of various sound fields and allows users to dynamically adjust the acoustic characteristics, providing a seamless transition between different sound environments.

Abstract

An information processing method realized by a computer system includes acquiring a first sound field parameter representing a feature of a first sound field and a second sound field parameter representing a feature of a second sound field, and generating a third sound field parameter representing a feature of a third sound field by using the first sound field parameter and the second sound field parameter. The first sound field has first acoustic characteristics different from second acoustic characteristics of the second sound field. The third sound field has third acoustic characteristics different from the first acoustic characteristics and the second acoustic characteristics.
